You use a hanging mass to pull sideways on a cart and you releaseit and let it run to the end of the track until it hits theendstop. Logger Pro captures the acceleration data. Why can't youaverage the whole acceleration data set to get the value of theacceleration for your calculation of the cart mass? Multiplechoice

a.The acceleration starts positive as the cart rolls and goesnegative when the cart stops so the average is always zero.
b. The acceleration starts at zero, goes to a non-zero value, thendrops to zero again and has a large spike when it hits the end. Theaverage tries to smooth over this and gives a wrong answer
